The clouds are rain. all the clouds are is water vapor(thats a fancy name for microscopic water) the water is so SMALL in the clouds it is too light to fall. then when it is heavy enough to fall you get rain

What are the highest clouds that hold a lot of water?

Cirrus clouds.


What clouds hold water?

Cumulus and nimbus clouds hold water in the form of water droplets or ice crystals. These clouds are typically associated with precipitation and can release water in the form of rain, snow, or hail.


Why do clouds carry water?

Clouds carry water because the air in the atmosphere holds water vapor. When the air cools, the water vapor condenses into liquid droplets, forming clouds. These droplets can eventually grow large enough to fall as precipitation when they become too heavy for the cloud to hold.


What is it called when the clouds can't hold any more water?

When clouds reach their maximum capacity to hold water vapor, it is known as saturation. This often leads to precipitation in the form of rain, snow, or other types of precipitation.


How much clouds exist?

It depends on how much water that evaporated.


If cold air mixes with air that has a lot of water vapor what will happen to the water vapor?

It may condense into clouds, or into precipitation, because cooler air cannot hold as much water vapor as warmer air.


How does a cloud hold water?

i think that clouds hold their water by saturation. so when the water gets more heavy then the cloud the water turns into droplets(rain). i know that this is not the best answer but at least i tried.


What happens to the water vaper in the air when the air cools?

When air cools, it can no longer hold as much water vapor, so some of the water vapor might condense into liquid water droplets. This can lead to the formation of clouds or fog.


How does rain fall on this earth?

Clouds contain water vapor (steam) which condenses and becomes water when it gets cold. This heavier water then falls down as rain. It's the same reason that your cold glass of iced tea sweats-- the water in the air cools down around it and becomes water.


What is the difference between a rain cloud and a normal cloud?

All clouds have the potential to be rain clouds. It just depends on how much water vapor is in them. Once the water vapor in a cloud cools or becomes too heavy, it rains. Clouds with lots of water are generally dark gray as opposed to white clouds with less water.


What different forms that water takes as altitude increases?

At higher altitudes it is colder. The cooler air can't hold the water in gas form so it condenses out as clouds.


What gas from the atmosphere condenses to form clouds?

Water vapor from the atmosphere condenses to form clouds. When the air cools, it can no longer hold all the moisture it contains, causing the water vapor to condense into tiny water droplets or ice crystals, which then come together to form clouds.
